I need to understand how to this equation but I'm not sure how. Please help!

\[ |x| = \left\{\begin{array}{rcc} x & \text{if} & x \geq 0 \\ - x & \text{if} & x < 0 \end{array} \right. \]will do

Could you explain how you got that please? It would be so much help. Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

That is correct. It is directly from the definition of absolute value.... Sorry I forgot
